Perhaps you only pay attention to the air that is currently in the rooms of your home. Do you ever think about where it comes from? Before it exits your vents, it’s been flowing through your ductwork. And whatever is lurking within that ductwork, the air brings a bit of it along for the ride. Now it’s floating around your home!
Is this something you should avoid thinking about or discussing? No! Don’t let it be an elephant in the room. If something unpleasant lurks in your ducts and contaminates your air, it’s time for duct cleaning. How can you tell if it’s necessary? Here are the signs.
If you are anything like the average homeowner, you probably don’t give a whole lot of thought to the condition of your home’s HVAC ductwork. Of course, with its placement, we wouldn’t expect you to give it much thought. After all, ducts are typically hidden form sight, traveling through space between walls and through your attic. Exposed ducts often look fine in big industrial or commercial spaces, but not so much in residential homes.
